With a squad of 200+ players we are currently the largest Judo club in the Republic of Ireland. 

Our Team, believes that Judo is much more than the mere learning and application of martial arts techniques or sporting success. In its totality, Judo is a wonderful system of physical, intellectual, and moral education

Whilst our Competition Team players regularly top the podium at major events, and we have produced plenty of All Ireland and Irish Open Champions, and countless provincial champions we do not see ourselves as a competition focused club.

We value all of our Judoka equally and our goals in Athenry Judo Club are to provide excellent fundamental, technical Judo coaching to all our members using traditional Judo values and progressive coaching techniques that foster, promote and develop classically dynamic, fluid, upright Judo in a safe, nurturing and friendly environment.
